MINT TL1000S
Jimmy the Boy Sun 13 Oct 2013, 11:56 am
" />Just in the process of purchasing a TL1000S on The Sunshine coast. Gus has been kind enough to do the legwork for me and checked it out this morning. He rang me from the fellas house and said, Jimmy just pay the man what he wants, you have to buy it, its showroom condition. So on that recommendation thats exactly what Im doing. It was stored under a house for years by a man that bought it new then went to the mines and hasn't come home. Only done 14700Kms. So now my only obstacle is getting from the Sunny Coast to Wagga Wagga. Can anyone suggest a reliable and careful motorcycle removalist?

I know they're becoming collectors items Ewok but Im not worried about putting Kms on it. They're made to have fun on, not sit in your garage. I don't ride that much anymore anyway, I have no commute, so its only when I get a chance on the weekends. My Bandit only has 18K on it and its 2004, I know Im slack. The beauty of that is though, someone is going to get a bloody good 2nd hand Bandit at a good price and Im happy if it goes to a good home. I might put something in the for sale thingy I suppose. I can't afford 2 regos in NSW too expensive.Ewok1958 wrote:Looks the goods all right. And low k's. Do you plan to ride it much?

Just organised everything through Fergussons, they were so professional and a pleasure to deal with. $75 cheaper than the next best quote and all staff are bike people and handle your bike with great care apparently. The clincher for me was they would take a box with original pipes and a few bits and pieces at no extra charge. Not one other mob would entertain anything but the bike. If it turns up here unscathed I'll post them a great review.Thanks Dekenai for the tip.Dekenai wrote:Krusty's dad ......i.e. Fergusson Motorcycle Transport, dunno about Sunshine Coast but used them to get a Fireblade from Adelaide to Canberra a couple of years back.

Good luck with Fergussons. I wil never use them again after my brand new GSX1250 was delivered from Melbourne to Darwin - arriving on it's side and then they refused to deal with me. It is almost 12 months later and I am still waiting for them to get back to me. Luckily there was minimal damage, but I won't ever use them again and told them I will tell every one I can how bad they were.

Now I'm nervous Steve. I suppose everyone can have an accident, but the after sales service doesn't sound very good. Good luck. I'll reserve my judgement.
